Here's a viable option....



Drive one of the working cars out to California - leave it there and fly to Sun Valley Idaho - buy my transporter (bring $180K in cash) - drive it to Texas - pick up three cars and take them to California - turn around and go get the other three - leave all of them and the transporter in California. Fly back to Texas and drive the last one out. Done.

I've done this type of "move" a couple times so I know it can be done.

Since you ask about moving "7 - 8" -- but only list 7 - I'm making the assumption you don't know how many cars you have so I stretched to make 8 work.

Call reliable exotic and intercity and have them quote your transport. The rollers and how the quote them will be the difference.

Are the parts going with the rollers or just the cars. Most of the major carriers won't haul the parts

Transport should cost less since fuel is below $2/gal now so shop around

I think you will have a hard time right now because all the transport guys are loading up to take cars to Scottsdale. Unless you can get somebody early. Pilot Transport, Taylored Lanes.
